    i dont think there is a lot of over kill in a MK6 fenn trap,over the years i have had mink,rats rabbits ,and squirrels survive a whack ,off of Mr Fenns products.One of my ferrets was caught by a Fenn that had been set for rabbits,hes still running round his cage eighteen moths later ,with not the slightist sign of overkill.

    I was out yesterday setting a few snares,i set 9 down one side of the hedge and three on the other side .When i checked this morning it was blowing a gale ,onto the side where i had set the 9 also there was a good frost,there was no catch in the 9 ,but as i crossed to the leeward side of the hedge the flock of crows and magpies told me ,i had a catch,of the three snares two had parts of rabbits around them ,and one snare and its catch was missing alltogether ,the odd thing was ,the two sets of rabbit remains had well formed young rabbits among them ,i would have thought that these would have b

    How long do you think it will take with cage traps?most of your rabbits will die of old age before they jump into one of them I strongly disagree. They're quick and easy. Snares are too much messing around. Then you no nothing about snaring ,and less about cage trapping. Again, I don't agree. True, you catch alot snaring.

    theres not a lot you can do about it other than kill the fox ,most of my rabbiting is in hunting country so the foxs have to be left be,you wont do any good setting snares in the mouths of holes ,you have to set them out on there runs ,or on a fence line,read Glen Waters articles on rabbit snaring ,its all there,he makes it easy.Ihad a visit from a Quorn fox last night ,he usally leaves me the head ,but he must have been hungry ,he just left me a scrap of fur
